Why is Libreoffice automatically inserting styles into my document? WTF... who thought this was a good idea. I need to know how to get it to stop. [closed]
writer english libreoffice Version: 4.2.3.3
i defined two styles for my document... i amended default for font and paragraph handling.... i defined a chapter style based on default. Where the hell is First Line Indent coming from. And Text Body. Libreoffice wont let me delete the styles.... this is the kind of default behavior i would expect from a MicroSoft product. i admit I am unreasonable aggravated... but seriously, how do i make it stop?
Maybe you are saving the files in a non native format, so it's needed to adapt data format and styles to those file format.
You nailed it. Many thanks for intelligently answering an overwrought, underserving me. I will work on my posting manners in the future. FYI: i was actually saving in .ott at the time. The culprit was an icon for navigating the document that i copied from a file that was saved in .odt format, but at some time in the past had been saved in .doc. I blamed the program for the behavior because there was no direct link to MS nastiness. Why doesn't LO override the style when I ask it to?
